vintage gowns look gorgeous, whilst
helping take the edge off a fresh
Spring day. Short white bridesmaids
dresses look cute, especially teamed
with flower crowns or blossom sprigs
in your hair.
Food and drink:
Keep it natural with locally sourced,
in-season produce. The emphasis
should be on enjoying one another’s
company – platters of sharing dishes
work perfectly. If you’re having a small
family-orientated wedding, asking
guests to each bring a salad or side
dish could make a lovely alternative
to traditional wedding gifts. Bottles
of home-brewed beers, wines and
cordials with your own customised
labels would suit this relaxed style.
Cake:
A cheese cake surrounded by fresh
fruits is surely a winning combination.
